With regards to Martin Cebulla for extending the translation into German.

I wrote a plugin that adds a button under the TinyMCE editor. From version 1.2.4 package is tested only with Joomla! 2.5+.
Special thanks to Amund Haugsand for translating both plugins for Joomla 1.7+ into Swedish.

I released plugin in version 1.1.1. This version improves minor bugs found in version 1.1, new version is downloadable from here:
https://github.com/backbutton/content-plugin/archive/v1.1.1.zip I also released a plugin that adds the button under the TinyMCE editor version 1.0 download from here: https://github.com/backbutton/editor-xtd-plugin/archive/plgeditors-xtdbackbuttonj15v1.0.zip

Included translations: English, German, Polish, Dutch

I am a Joomla newbie developing a site in English and Persian. I needed the Back Button to display in the both languages and contacted the developer. He guided me through the process of setting up exactly what I needed to do. Everyone should be this kind! Thank you.

Not only did it work first time (once I'd enabled it (I'm a newbie) but the level of support that the author provided to allow me to customise it into a button was unbelievably good.

If other 'providers' (including paid for "pro" versions) were even half as committed to their products and their users as Wojciech is then the world would be a much better place - and I'd have a working Joomla site...

I asked Wojciech to point me at the right .ccs files to customise the appearance of the button. So what did he do? He did it himself, registered with Joomla Forum specially, and posted an answer that, after a small tweak by me, works like a dream. Within 24 hours, I should add.

If you have a decent code editor like the Notepad++ I use, you can now copy code out of this short Joomla Forum thread to get a button that clones the Readmore button.

And the code works independently of color and background. So if Joomla 2.XX ever changes the look of the Readmore, your back button will change too. Even better, you yourself can change the color and background to whatever you like.

And all because we have here one developer with a truly generous spirit.
